I think this is looking down Crescent Ridge. Great ski runs are to be had left and right of it. The ridge itself is a good ascent option, though it gets steeper and steeper near the top.

You're likely to have this one all to yourself. Those that venture farther then Mark's Ghost are probably headed to Big Drop 1. Most don't venture as far as Crescent Bowl.

Beautiful Juniper trees you can ski between up near Flap Doodle Bowl. The canyon front and center is Mueller Park canyon. You can see Antelope island in the distance.

More turns in Flap Doodle bowl. The more northerly aspect of the bowl holds better snow.

Here you can see my ski tracks in Flap-Doodle Bowl. You can also see one of my skin tracks. This picture was taken while ascending Crescent ridge.

Second lap ski tracks into Flap Doodle bowl. I was really happy about these tracks, but you can hardly see them in the photo.
